Holiday Shopping ?Appvice? from Verizon Wireless

Shop stress free this year and enjoy your holiday weekend with the help of these apps and the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Network:

Map out where you want to go and what route you want to take. Use VZNavigator for turn-by-turn directions, your location, and live traffic conditions to avoid the crowds.

If you?re interested in searching for deals by store, product categories, or most recent offers, download the TGI Black Friday App . This app lets you view Black Friday ads from all major retail stores, create a personal shopping list, and compare prices to make sure you?re getting the best deal.

Worried about your favorite team rather than a shopping deal? Don?t! With the Verizon NFL Mobile you get 24/7 access to everything NFL. Check out scores, latest news, and highlights.

Make sure you stay fueled so your shopping experience is a marathon not a sprint. Download the Yelp app so you know where to get the closest cup of joe or sandwich to keep you going.

Cyber Monday is important and on the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Network you?ll be able to search and shop faster. With the Amazon.com app you can use that power to compare prices, read reviews, and buy all the latest gear and gadgets.
